I'm at 76% after 5 hours, which is okay for me. Sent and received around 100 texts, some being MMS. However, my Android OS is taking up 34% of the battery. Seems pretty excessive.
[Vibrant Android Development] hippotek:
I did some testing with the DSP Manager:

it does runs table as long as you stay away from the EQ, but I have to say, Voodoo sound (with bass boost enabled) sounds MUCH better than anything go through the DSP.

Voodoo Sound Settings remain active even after removing the Voodoo Control App.
[Vibrant Android Development] nuwanmw1988:
I also installed DSP..as same as you said it works if you don't hit the equalizer.But in v7 it worked for me without any problem.even the equalizer did work in v7.

GPS is no longer working for me :( Was working fine for a couple days, now it's sporadic and I'm lucky if it works after a reboot :(

I have same problem. Android OS taking up 40%. I do use a lot of widgets, but still...
[Vibrant Android Development] SuperJMN:
Did you test JK6? I am switching modems, but I have not a solid way to compare :(
[Vibrant Android Development] amblingaardvark:
This happens to me sometimes when I reboot my Vibrant while it is plugged in. It has happened to me on every ROM I've used. The battery will go from 10% to like 70% just by rebooting with it plugged in, then I reboot again and it drops like a rock and comes back a little before declining again, pretty much like your graph looks.
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
Weird thing is my phone wasn't plugged in. I never even charge my phone cus I have two batteries and that little charger thing so my phone's never plugged

Apologies if this is answered earlier in the thread, but is there any way to have the internal storage mounted as /mnt/emmc instead of mounting the sdcard there?

Inside my brick house which also has lead paint. Jk6 modem
[Vibrant Android Development] kuraiShin:
Same here, i use the Bluetooth that is integrated in my car and the same thing occurs. no issues what so ever with the people i talk to. only when talking without the Bluetooth is the issue present. as if there isn't a fluid connection between the mic and call during the initial talk and muting/unmute clears the voice session and starts a new.

as another note, someone mentioned the sporatic Battery metter dropping, seems to occur when you reboot your phone and tries to recalculate the battery level but cannot adjust accordingly no surprise though, its still being worked on

[Vibrant Android Development] mveksler:
I was running VoodooControl Plus 3.0.4 and it was causing phone not to go into deep sleep as some processes were not properly closed after call or aux use or mic use. I uninstalled and feel reboots andy phone is 13h and still have 40% left with light use.

You manually switching modems is the BEST and the ONLY real way for you to compare modems. You can use other's experiences with a modem as a semi-guide to which modems are best over others, but ultimately your phone and your area will play a decisive role in determining the best modem for YOU.

I would suggest placing a few modems on the root of your SDcard and when you have some free time, in a place where you are pretty familiar with your current signal strength, test each one, one by one to get the best fit.

I just flashed ka7 last night, and it looks pretty solid. Continuing to test throughout the day before deciding whether to move to another or stay here. :)

[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
neo, just curious if your planning on working with onecosmic as his kernel has the mute/unmute problem solved... but you have GPS and he doesn't...

i think you both can benefit from something there...
[Vibrant Android Development] enzomtrx:
I haven't strayed from adw ex as my launcher, so many options...including adding many screens.

Merry Christmas Neo, take a break for an eggnog!
[Vibrant Android Development] a2296455:
It was at standalone, so I changed it to assisted. It's still broken as hell. I deleted GPS data and restarted several times :(

It's not even detecting satellites after 75 seconds :(
[Vibrant Android Development] oblib__:
Don't know if this has been posted here yet, but I found a real solution for the storage space problem. Apparently if you create a file in the datadata directory called .nodatadata, it goes away entirely, leaving you with only the real /data/data directory for app storage. That means you can use all your storage again. I assume everyone would run into this eventually, if they had enough apps. I looked at my usage, and it was pretty evenly distributed among all my apps. It could be that it's related to Ti Backup somehow, though.

I got this info from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1363593&page=313

There are lots of ways to create the file, this what I did.

Get a console (I did adb shell from my laptop)

cd /datadata

touch .nodatadata

reboot.

Now if only I could get my GPS to work...

Anyone getting "snow" on their screen at bootup? Right before the Nexus boot animation I get a bunch of snow on screen like an old fashioned TV.
[Vibrant Android Development] turbosix:
multicolored or just black and white?
[Vibrant Android Development] belial20xx:
I agree. GPS is far from actually working. I am also getting force closes on the camera in video mode and can't use TV out for video playback. Those features need to be listed as broken and Neo if you can update op to note the issue. Seems v8 is not as stable as some try to say it is.
[Vibrant Android Development] cubensis2k:
Multicolored.
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
OMG, that's not multicolored snow.

That's rainbow.

You need to ODIN GB Bootloader.

Read OP.
[Vibrant Android Development] belial20xx:
I wish he did not remove the option. I think it was stupid he did. Now I have issues left and right with wifi connections. Have signal but keeps booting me out due to poor signal. That's BS I feel. I should be able to decide if I want to use it regardless. The constant disconnects are rediculous. NEO can you please fix this issue. I the users should be allowed to use a low signal connection with out the phone dictating your connection.
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:

[Vibrant Android Development] MStrawder:
I would try the soldering fix here. I did that ages ago and so long as the GPS driver allows the radio to send/receive, I get great GPS results with almost any ROM.

Hehe thanks! Got it to work no more fc :)))
[Vibrant Android Development] snapemiken:
LOL. No offense but I just find it funny.
[Vibrant Android Development] ezraf:
Stupid, BS, and ridiculous are all good descriptions for someone complaining about the best ROM available on the Vibrant. ;) Not trying to start something I'm just saying... Seems we lost CM7 support in a similar way.
[Vibrant Android Development] a2296455:
I actually did that and tried the non-soldering fix. After I did that, the first time I booted up I had 11 satellites in view down to a 10 meter accuracy in less than 10 seconds. It was amazing. But now, nothing :(

Yes, it was already set to North America anyway.

We should spend more time lobbying Samsung to release the damn GPS interface instead of have their crap programmers code ICS for the Vibrant.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
i think hes talking about you removing the "avoid poor connections" option

which, i want to add, was stupid and didn't help anyone.

Wow I'm gone for a week and development runs wild! Over 150 new pages!

I'm currently on v6.5 and going to flash v8 now, is there anything I should perhaps know or do?

Would be very appreciated. I like to keep up with everything.

Thanks again for all the work Neo and same goes to everyone working with you.

[Vibrant Android Development] chaulklet:
How do you stop it from rebooting? It randomly reboot at times.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
Try to find out what makes it reboot. Mine hasn't rebooted, and when it does its usually because i have too many heavy apps running.

Replicate the reboot process and tell us.
[Vibrant Android Development] mattraab:
If you overload the CPU it will freeze for a couple seconds trying to save itself then just reboot. it happens when i play stressful games. its a kernel issue, just wait and dont cause to much stress, this isnt a daily depending on what you do. its meant for light use as of right now. but even light stuff will cause problems, back to miui for me.

When I send a text message. :p Seriously, it does this like 3-4 times a day where shorty after I press the send icon it'll reboot. So the messaging app is definitely something that needs to be looked at.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
Ok, what I would try is try using another alternative... like... GO SMS? or whatever is new these days I havent tried any new ones.

Try texting with that for a day (its a pretty good app too) and see if you get any reboots.

If you do, its something wrong with the mms.apk as a whole., if not, its just that messenger app.

as for me, since yesterday my phone doesn't go below 800mhz lol.

I used goog nav for the first time today on v8. My gps is accurate to 4 meters with plenty of birds. The blue arrow is following me perfectly. When I get directions to a destination it seems as though the app is purposefully avoiding the freeways. In nav mode it constantly rerouted to a frontage road or surface streets even when I was on the freeway and close to my destination. If you saw a video you wouldn't believe the crazy routes it was choosing. The routes were stupid in map and nav mode. Anyone else experience this or have an idea of what is going on?

By the way, this is my first post in a developer forum because I read everything I can and search like crazy before asking.

you should read the bootloader thread. it explains everything in detail. that and i'm sure you wouldn't flash something without READING what exactly it does. i mean that just wouldn't be very intelligent especially when bootloaders are one of the only ways to permanently brick this phone. but hey you know that already right? :D

---------- Post added at 11:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 AM ----------

be careful what you ODIN. certain rom flashes contain bootloader files, while others have different instructional files. if you flash the wrong rom you will brick the device. like no coming back jig won't save you brick. the Bootloader thread gives alot of deatails on what to look for in roms and odin flashes. read it entirely.

-GPS great (7 meters accuracy inside) Edit- 5 meters

accurancy:)

- no mute/unmute bug for me :) -tested

-sms/mms works great , phone calls too

-camera works but didnt tested through

The only thing I dont like is Browser experience!!!

Scrolling up and down is kind of slow!

pinch to zoom makes text blurred (after some time comes back to normal).

Anybody else have this problem???

Calendar, calculator, messages ,dailer, in call and out call need some theming!!!

Overall GREAT JOB NEO! Thanks for amazing effort!

Can I just flash my backup through recovery or I need froyo bootloaders first?!
